Profile

This is my seventh year at QMUL. Previous to coming here, I taught at UCL for six years, where I completed my doctorate, which contributed to the Leverhulme-funded ‘Bloomsbury Project’. My doctoral work explored the role of fiction in the social production of Bloomsbury, a neighbourhood that in the long nineteenth century was imaginatively transformed from social marginality to cultural and intellectual centrality. Before this, I studied at Magdalen College, Oxford. My research addresses literature from the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century, often focussing on the politics of urban and coastal space. I live in Camberwell, but was born in Plymouth and lived in Cornwall for my first two decades.

I serve on the editorial board of the London Journal and the advisory board of QMUL’s City Centre.

I occasionally blog at www.victorianeveryday.org and tweet from @matthewingleby.
